For your final draft of your vignette, it needs to be submitted via a blog.
If you have a blog from summer reading or previous courses, please go ahead and use that! It's great to build an online portfolio.
If you have never made a blog before, follow these simple directions:
1) Go to weebly.com. (You can use wordpress, but I don't know very much about it so I can't help you as much with that.)
2) create an account. You must have an email address.
3) Choose a theme. It doesn't matter which one.
4) Choose BLOG. . Not Site.
5) Once it is set up, you should see a blue button at the bottom that says "New Post." Click that.
6) Where it says "Post Title," click and type the title of your piece.
7) On the left hand "elements" side, you should see a box that says "Text." Drag it and drop it into the big square where your post is.
8) Click where it says "" Start typing your story.
9) You need two pictures! Find your pictures online and save them to your computer.
10) On the left hand "elements" side, you should see a box that says "Image." Drag it and drop it into the big square where you typed your post.
11) Click the green "upload" button. Find your photo and upload it.
12) Repeat.
13) When you're done, hit the orange button that says "Post."
14) Continue and hit the orange button that says "Publish."
15) Do whatever else it says next (i.e. verify that you're human).
Once you are published, you should be live on the internet! Now, do this:
1) Hover over "Advanced Comp" on the top of this blog.
2) Click on "Student Blogs."
3) Find your class.
4) Click on Comments.
5) Leave a comment with your full name and your blog URL. Submit the comment.
